When two TDs left for bigger gigs last year it triggered elections to fill their places.

Fine Gael’s Pascal Donohoe left for a big job at the World Bank and Independent TD Catherine Connolly left for a bigger job in Áras an Uachtaráin.

Voters tomorrow will be faced with long ballot papers but the Irish Times IPSOS B&A poll suggests the early emergence of a small number of clear favourites in both constituencies.

But who are? How did the candidates perform in the last week of canvassing? And will the Government have a bad day at the polls?

Irish Times political editor Pat Leahy gives his take on what’s happening in these two large constituencies and predicts who will win.
